Have you ever wanted to know what your friends and neighbors are into when it comes to scary movies? Maybe you're planning on inviting over the whole block for an outdoor horror screening, but you have no idea what the heck to watch. You could just take a stab at what they might like, and risk crying kids and pissed off parents, or you can use this super nifty infographic to make a choice everyone will like.
The folks over at Influenster conducted a survey of over 15,000 people across the states in order to determine which Halloween movie your state loves best. The results determined that '90s gem Hocus Pocus was hands down the number one preferred movie across the nation.
A whopping 12 states including Alabama, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, Hawaii, Arkansas, Idaho, Oklahoma, Utah, and Indiana all said it was their fave film to watch this time of year. In second place was The Conjuring, as Arizona, California, Delaware, Illinois, Maine, Minnesota, New Mexico, South Dakota all picked it as their fave. Finally, Insidious came in at number three, with Florida, Wisconsin and West Virginia all voting it for their top pick.
As one might guess, Texas chose The Texas Chainsaw Massacre as their winner because, you know, Texas. Other states spook themselves out with everything from Jaws, Carrie and The Ring, to Saw, The Exorcist and The Shining. Pretty solid choices if you ask us.
